“With its location directly across from the University of Florida, this Holiday Inn particularly suits campus visitors, and the rooftop pool offers unique views. The ongoing renovations appear to cause some disruption, but the staff earns praise for attentiveness. I think families could especially benefit from the 'kids stay and eat free' policy.”
